School chief out at Plum
PLUM — The Plum School District Superintendent Timothy Glasspool is resigning effective Oct. 1 in the wake of convictions of three male high school teachers for having sex with three different female students.
The Plum School Board voted Tuesday to accept Glasspool’s resignation. The same board approved paying $300,000 to settle the district’s share of a lawsuit filed by one of the victims.
Terms of Glasspool’s severance package weren’t immediately revealed, nor were details of the legal settlement. The district says the settlement will be revealed once all parties involved sign off on it.
Glasspool was suspended last year while a law firm hired by the board investigated reports Glasspool didn’t do enough to investigate previous reports of abuse by at least one of the teachers. The law firm cleared Glasspool.
